Item Special Note
Karin grew up in Minneapolis and have a BFA in hot glass from St. Cloud State University in Minnesota and an MFA in Ceramics from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. She has lived all over the country, working and exploring, but loves Minnesota best. Coming back to the north woods really has been coming home.
Karin enjoys working in pottery and tile, because they bring art to the table and every day use. Clay is a great medium for expression. Karin says, " I love that I exist in a long line of potters through history and am part of the reflection of our culture."
Her work is Maiolica, an in-glaze hand painted tin glaze technique. She makes functional pots and tiles that are meant to celebrate the day. Her individual wall pieces and compositions of tiles are hand built and decorated with colorful, loose brushwork. She draws from every day scenes and objects for her imagery. Karin says, "capturing the color and movement of the moment is my aim…the flowers in my garden trembling in a slight breeze and the sun glowing through them, or the light coming in the window and lighting the room."
